[1.0.1] Rak'Shor Cultist can summon more Doomed Shades

[omero]

Happened twice already that Rak'Shor Cultist was able to quickly summon more than one Doomed Shade of my current character.
I've asked in #tome over IRC before reporting and it appears that that isn't supposed to happen.
I kept a backup of just before taking the stairs down and at the end of the fight, along with the complete stdout log.

This happened to me once. The only time it happened was when I decided to try something cheeky. I activated a displacement shield on myself and set the target to the Doomed boss. When the Doomed summoned a shade of me, sure enough it had a displacement shield that was ALSO targeting the Doomed boss. Over the next few turns, I equipped a few pieces of gear I had preemptively unequiped to make my shade weaker, then I did something (was it use a phase door rune?) and then suddenly he summoned ANOTHER shade of me.

Uhm... But... That's what I always do!
Open with Rune of Reflection (a shield in any case), Displacement Shield (target Rak'Shor), hit Aegis.
Before taking the stairs down I wear the least usefull (from "their" perspective) amulet and rings.
As soon as I'm in a better position or they're dazed or something, I swap back the better amulet and rings.
I phase door to try to reposition behind cover and blast around with fireflash... Why should this be cheesy tactics?

One should get a double achievement for defeating double Doomed Shades

Ofc it's cheesy tactics, but who ever said cheesy was something to be shunned?

I always just walk in and win. The game's ai is rarely a good tactician. Never had any problems.
